16S rRNA metabarcoding for the identification of tick-borne bacteria in ticks in the Republic of Korea

Abstract Ticks are blood-sucking ectoparasites that act as vectors for transmission of various pathogens. The purpose of this study was to assess tick-borne bacteria, whether pathogenic or not, in ticks distributed in Korea using 16S rRNA metabarcoding and to confirm the results by PCR. Questing tic...
